    Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development 635 Capitol Streeti NE, Suite 150 Salem, OR 97301-2540 Caring for Our Coast Every Oregonian cares about the future of our Coast. That caring is reflected in a series of laws, rules and plans that regulate how the coast is developed. These documents are not blueprints. They give elected and appointed officials considerable discretion to decide how and where new development will occur. They also give citizens an opportunity to participate in many of these decisions, and to help shape the future of our coast. This booklet discusses the origins and the intent of the laws, rules and plans. It is a primer about the Oregon system for managing land and coastal resources. It explains how decisions are made, the legal requirements for decisions, and how you can participate. It’s a booklet for people who care about and want to help share the future of Oregon’s coast. Important Note: This booklet is only a summary of Oregon’s coastal laws and regulations. It is not an exact statement of planning or regulatory requirements. For precise information about a particular law or program, please contact the appropriate local, state and federal agencies listed in the back of this booklet. Funding: Financial assistance for the preparation of this document was provided by the Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, as amended, administered by the Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) through a grant to the Department of Land Conservation and Development.
